Abstract: A method for determining a digital phase in a signal comprises
sampling a reference signal for a low going edge. If the low going edge is not
detected the reference signal is sampled again. If low going edge is detected (78)
a counter is initialized (70). The reference signal is again sampled if a high going
edge is not detected the reference signal is resampled until the high going edge is
detected (79). When a high going edge is detected (79) a counter is started (73).
A resulting signal is then sampled if the level of the resulting signal is high the
resulting signal is sampled until a low going edge is detected (78). If a low going
edge is not detected sampling of the resulting signal continues. If a low going
edge is detected (78) sampling is continued until a high going edge is detected
(79) at which point the counter is stopped (76). The counter updates a register
(96). When the resulting signal was sampled for a high level the resulting signal
is sampled until a high going edge is determined (79) at which point the register is
stopped and converted to a phase difference (84). In one embodiment of the
invention the reference signal being sampled is a driver for an ultrasonic
transmitter (14) and the resulting signal is an electrical signal (21) representative
of a received ultrasonic signal (16).

Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter (100) (ADC) includes a dither signal
generator (107) configured to add an analog dither signal (114) to the analog input
signal (102) of the ADC prior to digitization (i.e., quantization). The amplitude of the
either signal is selected based upon the power levels of one or more carriers present in
the bandwidth for which the ADC is designed to operate. Addition of the dither signal
to the input signal in the analog domain reduces quantization noise such as conversion
spurs that result from non-linearities in the ADC transfer function.

Abstract: A multi-chamber stimulation device and associated method reliably
and automatically verify capture during cardiac stimulation. The
stimulation device achieves efficient synchronous biventricular stimulation
by using cross-chamber electrode configurations to minimize pacing
energy requirements, and further achieves reliable capture detection by
using cross-chamber sensing electrode configurations to minimize the
effect of lead polarization. During cross-chamber stimulation, a biphasic
pulse, a balanced monophasic pulse, or a biventricular pacing pulse may
be delivered. By delivering a biventricular pacing pulse, a larger potential
difference is established across the ventricles, improving the recruitment
of Purkinje fibers and other conductive elements of the cardiac tissue,
thus enhancing conduction of the stimulating pulses through the cardiac
tissue.

Inventor: WILLS GONZALO
IPC: G02B6/34

Abstract: The present invention relates to an isolated polarization
beam splitter or combiner, for joining light from different
inputs into one common port, and for dividing a beam of
light into orthogonal polarizations. In both modes of
operation, the splitter/combiner provides isolation
preventing transmission of light in a reverse direction.
As a splitter, a beam of light is separated through a
birefringent material into sub-beams of orthogonal
polarization components, and each sub-beam is passed
through a non-reciprocal polarization rotator to rotate the
polarization so that a reflected beam, or other counter-transmitted
light cannot return on the same path through
the birefringent material to the source. As a combiner,
two separate beams of light are launched with known
orthogonal polarizations into a first birefringent
material, passed through a non-reciprocal polarization
rotator and then combined as orthogonal polarizations into
a single output port. Advantageously, by providing the
splitting or combining function in a same isolating device,
insertion losses are reduced and the device is smaller and
more cost effective. As a further advantage, a
polarization beam splitter/combiner is provided in which
the optical path length for the two separated orthogonal
polarizations traveling through a birefringent crystal is
equal, while still permitting the economical use of
birefringent crystals with an uncollimated beam of light.

Abstract: Data is stored into a plurality of first memory blocks
(M0, M1, M2, M3), and regeneration data for regenerating
this data is stored into a second memory block (H0). In a
read operation, either a first operation (Fig. 3B) for
reading the data directly from a first memory block (M2)
selected or a second operation (Fig. 3C) for regenerating
the data from the data stored in unselected first memory
blocks (M0, M1, M3) and the regeneration data stored in the
second memory block (H0) is performed. This makes it
possible to perform an additional read operation on a first
memory block during the read operation of this first memory
block. Therefore, requests for read operations from
exterior can be received at intervals shorter than read
cycles. That is, the semiconductor memory can be operated
at higher speed, with an improvement in data read rate.

Abstract: Das Brandschutzelement (1) mit Schichtstruktur ist insbesondere für Feuerschutztüren
bestimmt und besteht vorzugsweise aus zwei äußeren Steinwolle-Dämmplatten
und zumindest einer mittleren Schicht aus anorganischem Werkstoff.
Die mittlere Schicht (4) besteht aus einer Gipsplatte, die mit den Steinwolle-Dämmplatten
(2, 3) durch einen Kleber aus anorganischen Bestandteilen verbunden
ist. Die Gipsplatte (4) kann zweckmäßig auf mindestens einer großen Oberfläche
mit einem Gewebe oder einem Vlies aus Glasfasern (5, 6) versehen sein.
Durch die Verwendung von vorgefertigten Gipsplatten für die mittlere Schicht der
Brandschutzelemente, die ein- oder beidseitig mit einem Gewebe oder einem
Vlies aus Glasfasern als Auflage für die Steinwolle-Dämmplatten versehen sein
können, ergibt sich eine wesentliche Vereinfachung der Herstellung solcher
Brandschutzelemente, die auch zu einer Beschleunigung des Herstellungsverfahrens
führt. Die Gipsplatten bilden einen stabilen Unterbau für die außenliegenden
Steinwolle-Dämmplatten. Für die Verklebung mit diesen wird weniger Kleber benötigt,
der deshalb auch schneller aushärtet und damit zu einer erheblichen Produktionssteigerung
auf den vorhandenen Produktionseinrichtungen führt.
